Others can be heard booing and shouting “get out of our club” as the tensions rose at the national stadium.

It is not clear what caused the disturbance or at what stage during or after the match the chaos took place.

Aston Villa supporters on the All Things Claret and Blue fan site had their say on the incident.

One said: “Our fans are an embarrassment. Your in a cup final against one of the best teams in the world, but we fight between ourselves.”

Another wrote: “One word… pathetic.”

A third added: “So sad watching your own fans fighting.”

And a final user commented: “Good to hear them being booed. No real Villa fans there.”

Villa were looking to win their first piece of major silverware in 24 years when they took on City.

But goals from Sergio Aguero and Rodri gave Pep Guardiola’s side a 2-0 lead in the first half.

Mbwana Samatta pulled one back with a diving header before the break but a late Claudio Bravo save ensured Manchester City made it a hat-trick of League Cup triumphs.

Captain and proper Villa fan Jack Grealish was inconsolable after the full-time whistle, sitting alone in tears on the famous Wembley turf.
